Denali

Denali is a 13 yr old Blue Roan quarter horse gelding that is a shining example of versatility, athleticism, and heart. He stands 16 hands, stocky and just an overall big raw boned gelding. He has a gorgeous blue roan color that is flashy and has people asking about him everywhere we go but there is so much more this super nice gelding has to offer. He rides both English and Western, and is very handy broke. Neck reins, side passes, nice soft back up, works gates, moves off leg pressure, collected trot and canter, roll backs, are just a few of the bells and whistles this pretty boy has to offer. He has held several different jobs from ranching, ponying, and showing, but most recently this past year he has been one of our personal trail horses. We have taken him on tons of camping trips, and large group trail rides. He is one of the best trail horses we have ridden. He is solid out on the trail, doesn’t mind to lead, follow or go out alone. He will ride away from the group quietly and without any issues. He will cross all water and boggy mud spots with no hesitation. We have enjoyed swimming in lakes and rivers with him. He will climb any hill or embankment that you ask. He is a perfect gentleman out on the trail, never gets excited or hot. He goes over downed trees, logs and easily maneuver him through about any obstacle you may come across. He has been trail ridden in several different states and in about every type of terrain you can think of. He easily adapts to any place and I would have no concerns taking him riding anywhere. He loads and hauls very good, and has spent a week or more being tied on picket lines when out camping. He has no vices or bad habits. Denali works in the arena just as good as out in the open. He has been ridden English and has a nice stride. He has been introduced to fox hunting a couple times and really enjoyed it. The more he is taken out I feel he could really shine in this discipline. He has spent quite a bit of time on the track and his steady disposition and work ethic help him be the a fantastic pony horse. He is solid and doesn’t get phased by those high energy colts. Part of the reason he is such a great trail horse is the amount of time he has spent out on the ranch working. Being a ranch horse is what gave him the great foundation that he has and the versatility to work out in the open just as good in the arena. He is used to having a honest days work and will not stop giving you his all until the job is done. He has tons of patience and just really is a great ranch partner. You can quietly check fences, open gates, sort and pen cattle. when you need more horse for some quicker work he will jump right into action and then comes right back down. Denali is one of the horses that can continue being a workhorse or is just as happy out enjoying the trails. He has a lot of heart and tries to please his riders no matter what the task. He is a beautiful big solid horse that is going to fit most size riders. We have truly enjoyed having him in the barn and are excited to be able to offer such a nice well round beautiful gelding.
